WINNER CHOOSES SEDONA, CELEBRATION IN JACKSON HOLE!

First, we would like to announce the winner of the March drawing for a free flight to their next symposium. Laura Julian of Charlotte, NC will be joining us in Sedona, Arizona! Congratulations Laura, what a fabulous destination to choose!

Sedona has been a favorite among Encore Attendees for years and has consistently sold out in years past. It is no wonder, as “Red Rock Country” is rich in culture and spectacular, breathtaking views seen nowhere else. As if this is not enough to draw a large attendance, add in the Grand Canyon. The astonishing South Rim of the Grand Canyon is just two hours south of Sedona. The Grand Canyon & Sedona Experience in November 2009, is already selling quickly! If you have this destination on your list, register now.

While we take in the beautiful Spring weather and blooming flowers, Summer is waiting to burst through with the flurry of fun and adventure. The big bang this July will be in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Encore Symposiums' is hosting this year's Fourth of July Celebration against the backdrop of the Teton mountain range, including the world famous 13,770 foot Grand Teton!

Make your summer plans now! Attendees at the Grand Teton & Yellowstone National Parks Unveiled are invited to experience music festivals, an Independence Day BBQ and fireworks display, tours of the Grand Teton National Park by land or river, traditional rodeos, hikes and horseback rides through some of our nations most breathtaking landscapes, and, of course, Yellowstone's famous geysers and never-ending scenery.

We would also like to announce our latest 'encore'! We just returned from The Wine Country Extravaganza in Sonoma, California and we continue to reminisce about the amazing wineries we visited and lasting friendships that were formed there. The feedback we received encouraged us to go back right away. So, if you missed the Wine Country this year, sign up for FEBRUARY 2010!

As always, we appreciate each and every attendee and their families and friends that we have the honor of meeting. Thank you for being loyal travelers! We strive to make every destination an all new experience!
